Chapter 1 Product Overview

Product Overview

This chapter describes features of the product.

Features

TM-T83II-i is a receipt printer which can print directly from a smart device application or Web

application.

This product supports ePOS-Device

peripherals or network compatible TM printers.

*1: ePOS-Device: Epson original technology to control TM printers or POS peripherals via a smart

device application or Web application. This technology is realized by ePOS-Device Service

running on the products.

and ePOS-Print *2 and are capable of controlling POS

*2: ePOS-Print: Epson original printing function t

systems supported by XML and Web services. This technology is realized by the ePOS-Print

Service running on the products.

hat has a high compatibility with a variety of

Functions

•Enables connection to peripherals (barcode scanners, etc) via a USB or serial interface.

•The Epson ePOS SDK is provided for iOS, Android and Windows application, and Web

application development.

The Epson ePOS SDK is a software development kit that integrates the ePOS-Print SDK and the

ePOS-Device SDK. It is recommended that applica

SDK is migrated to the Epson ePOS SDK. For detail, refer to the Migration Guide included with

the Epson ePOS SDK.

• Uses the communication box

function to enable communications between applications. This

function allows for communications, etc. between tablet terminals. (ePOS-Device SDK,

ePOS-Device XML)

•Supports Server Direct Print that sends a request for print data from the product to the Web server

at regular

intervals.

•Since print data can be saved in the spooler, applications can be released from processing print

jobs regardless of the printer status.

•When a network printer is registered, print forwarding process can be realized. Also, if the printer

is not ready to print, you can print from another printer.

•Device data notification function is realized, allowing for notifications to be sent from devices

such as barcode scanners to Web servers to trigger applications.

•Equipped with Web server that supports the scripting language "PHP" and database "SQLite3".

tion software developed with the ePOS-Device

•Enables HTTPS *3 communication.

•Supports TLS 1.2. SSL3.0 is not supported.

*1: For more information on the communication box, see the ePOS-Device SDK for iOS User's

Manual, the ePOS-Device SDK for Android User's Manual, the ePOS-Device SDK for JavaScript

User's Manual, and the ePOS-Device XML User's Manual.

*2: TM-i firmware Ver. 4.1 or later.

*3: TM-i firmware Ver. 4.3 or later.

*4: TM-i firmware Ver. 4.4 or later.

For information on how to use these functions, see "Controlling the Printer" on page 70.

Turns the printer on or off. The marks on the switch: ( : OFF/ : ON)

Before turning on the product, be sure to check that the AC adapter is connected to the power supply.

CAUTION

After the product is turned on, it requires about 30 seconds until it is ready to print.

Power Switch Cover

Install the power switch cover that comes with the TM-T83II-i onto the printer to prevent

inadvertent changing of the power switch, to prevent tampering, and to improve the appearance of

the printer.

To operate the power switch, insert an object with a pointed tip such as a ballpoint pen into the hole

on the power switch cover.

A waterproof cover for the power switch is also included.

If an accident occurs with the power switch cover attached, unplug the power cord immediately.

WARNING

Continued use of the printer may cause fire or electric shock.

Use the waterproof power switch cover if the printer is installed in a humid location or exposed to water. If current leakage occurs, it could result in electric shock.

Chapter 2 Setup

Installing the Product

Horizontal Installation Vertical Installation Hanging Installation

You can install the printer horizontally on a flat surface (with the paper exit on top) or vertically

(with the paper exit at the front). Also, you can hang it on a wall using the included accessories.

 You can use the paper near-end sensor only when you install the printer horizontally.  When you install the printer vertically or hang it on a wall, be sure to disable the setting.

Otherwise false detection occur. For information about the paper near-end sensor, see

"Adjusting the Paper Roll Near-End Sensor" on page 33

 Take measures to prevent the printer from moving by vibration during paper cutting and

when using a drawer. Affixing tape (Model: DF-10) is provided as an option.

 Do not place the printer in dusty locations.  Do not knock or strike the printer. This may cause defective print.  Do not catch cables or foreign matter under the printer.

Installing the Printer Vertically

When installing the printer vertically, be sure to attach the included control panel label for vertical

installation on the roll paper cover, and attach 4 rubber feet in the rectangular indents in the printer

case, as shown in the illustration below.

Control panel label for vertical installation

Rubber feet

Vertical installation

Yo u can install the printer so that the roll paper cover is upright to the mounting surface using the

included wall hanging bracket.

Attach the control panel label for vertical installation on the roll paper

cover.

Install the wall hanging bracket on the printer, and fix it using 2 included

screws.

Attach 2 rubber feet in the rectangular indents in the printer case, and

attach 2 rubber feet within the scribed line on the hanging bracket.

Place the printer with the wall-hanging-bracket-side down.

Hanging the Printer on a Wall

To hang the printer on the wall, follow the steps below.

 To fix the printer securely, install the wall hanging bracket on a wall made of wood, concrete,

or metal. The thickness of the wall should be 10 mm {0.4"} or more.

 Be sure to use metallic screws.  The screws on the wall side must have a pull-out strength of 150 N (15.3 kgf) or more.

Attach the included control panel label for vertical installation on the roll

paper cover.

Control panel label for vertical installation

Install 2 screws (screw diameter: 4 mm {0.16"}, head diameter: 7 to 9 mm

{0.28 to 0.35"}) in the wall at an interval of 80 mm {3.15"}.

Make sure the length of the screw's body in the wall is 10 mm {0.39"} or more, and the length outside the wall is 3 to 4 mm {0.12 to 0.16"}.

Chapter 2 Setup

Screws

Wall hanging bracket

Remove the installed 2 screws from the printer, install the wall hanging

bracket on the printer, and fix it using the screws.

Align the holes in the wall hanging bracket with the screws on the wall, and

hook it securely.

Changing the Paper Width

You can change the paper width from 80 to 58 mm by installing the included 58-mm width roll paper

guide. Follow the steps below to change the paper width.

 Because some parts of the print head and the autocutter contact the platen and they may

become worn out, once you change the paper width from 80 to 58 mm and use the printer, you cannot change it back to 80 mm.

 When changing the paper width, be sure to make the setting for the paper width with the

memory switch. For information about the memory, see "Setting the Memory Switches/

Receipt Enhancement" on page 44

Open the roll paper cover.

Align 3 projections on the 58-mm width roll paper guide with the

rectangular holes in the printer, and push it downwards.

Adjusting the Paper Roll Near-End Sensor

When you install the printer horizontally, you can use the paper near-end sensor. Below are two

situations where a paper near-end sensor adjustment is required.

•To adjust the detection position to suit the diameter of the roll paper core used.

•To adjust the detection position of the remaining amount of roll paper.

 To use the paper near-end sensor, it needs to be enabled with the memory switch. To set the

memory switch, see

 When you install the printer vertically or hang it on a wall, be sure to disable the paper near-

end sensor. Otherwise false detection occur.

 Since roll paper cores vary slightly in shape, depending on paper roll design and

manufacturing tolerances, it is impossible to detect the remaining paper exactly.

 Use roll paper with a core inner diameter of 12 mm {0.47"} and outer diameter of 18 mm

{0.71"} so that the paper near-end sensor can detect the remaining paper as accurately as possible.

"Setting the Memory Switches/Receipt Enhancement" on page 44.

Whether to let the Paper LED light when the roll paper is nearly out can be selected with the memory switch. To set the memory switch, see

Follow the steps below to adjust the roll paper near-end detector.

Open the roll paper cover, and remove the roll paper.

Loosen the adjustment screw fastening the sensor, and align the upper
